Description

metatest fits and tests a metaregression model. In addition to
the traditional z test on the estimated coefficients, metatest
also yields more reliable statistics: the t-test, log likelihood ratio
test, Bartlett corrected log likelihood ratio test, and the permutation
test. The Bartlett corrected log likelihood ratio test and the
permutation test are to be recommended since their type 1 errors are
adequate.

See metatest for details and an example.
